Thousands of thoughts

The apricot blossoms in the courtyard seem to be there all the year round, neither blooming nor wilting, as light as snow, pink as morning glow, as if covering the White Mansion with a thin layer of clothes.

Once upon a time, the flying flowers filled the sky with the fragrance of hundreds of flowers, and the white clothes were better than the snowy night.

【Where did you go last night? 】It was a gentle and clean voice, like the water in the mountain spring that day, clean and transparent.Although it was a questioning tone, it was very pleasant.

Little White Sable shook his head, and argued [I slept in Baihua Palace last night and didn't go anywhere. 】

【Really didn't go anywhere last night? ] That voice is still gentle.

The little white mink opened his eyes wide, and nodded vigorously.

【Then, what is this? 】The white palm is spread out, and the white hair lying in the palm is exactly the same as the hair on the little white mink, snow white and shiny.

[This... this is not... not mine! ! ! 】Although he was a little guilty, Xiao Bai Diao still spoke out confidently.

[The Drunken Immortal Brew that was originally prepared for the Tiangong feast was placed in Tianjiao, but it was stolen last night, and these white hairs were found on the ground of Tianjiao. 】

[...! ! ! ] To be so careless, I blame myself for being too impatient to leave evidence.But even if you kill him, you can't admit that it's yours, otherwise it will prove that you stole the wine last night.

[Since it's not yours, I'm relieved.It must have been left behind by the wine thief, and I will report this matter to the Emperor of Heaven and send someone to investigate thoroughly, when the time comes...]

[No...don't...] Report to the Emperor of Heaven? ! ! !The consequences would be very serious, the little white sable shouted in a panic, his white face flushed [It's me...it's mine. 】If the Emperor of Heaven knew that the wine specially brewed for him was stolen and drunk, he would not be furious.

【oh? 】Looks like the little white sable is finally willing to tell the truth, the humane said 【So... you took the wine? 】

The little white mink lowered its head, reluctantly answered, curled up at its feet and lay down, lowered its head and gently rubbed against the man with its beautiful long tail, as if obediently admitting its innocence, but the tail began to turn slightly red .

Seeing such a well-behaved appearance, how can people be angry with him?

[Always so capricious. 】The man sighed softly, stretched out his hand to pick up the little white mink and put it on his lap, stroking its red hair all over its body. Sleep for three days and three nights, you white mink...]

Want to sleep for three days and three nights...

No wonder my eyelids feel so heavy, I can't open them, and I feel sleepy.But that hand was so warm, as soft as a spring breeze.

Then sleep for three days and three nights, and there will be another altar of drunken wine in the dream.

Little White Sable slowly closed his eyes.

The breeze blows, and the fragrance bursts.

There is a faint fragrance in the nose, which is cold for a long time.Suddenly, the lonely ghost looked back, and not far away, the man in white clothes was better than snow.

Dazed for a moment, the lonely ghost smiled.

Baiyou just froze in place.

After a long, long time, Baiyou can still clearly remember that at dusk under the apricot blossoms, the lonely ghost was dressed in red like a sunset, quietly admiring the flowers.Startled suddenly, looking back and smiling all over the city.

The world just fell silent.

There is only a gentle breeze, and occasionally the petals of the apricot blossoms blow down and flutter gently.

Under the apricot blossoms, one white and one red, just looking at each other quietly.

The man looked at it with a wandering mind, and the ghost smiled lightly.

But why the smiling chestnut eyes were so heavy, he couldn't understand.

[Hehe~~~~Worry'er] First, the lonely ghost laughed lightly, and he slowly stepped forward, his face had regained the old unbridled unruliness.

【…】

[Just now I was thinking, why are there no apricots in your yard full of apricot trees? 】

[They only bloom, not bear fruit. ] Bai You also returned to her usual indifference.

【Do you like Xinghua very much? 】

【kindness. 】

[Sure enough. 】

Baiyou raised his eyes and looked at the lonely ghost suspiciously.

【I mean, it really looks like someone I once knew. 】The lonely ghost said again.

[He also likes Xinghua? 】

[And he also doesn't like Kyoko. 】

【Is it? 】

The lonely ghost nodded, then asked【Have you had dinner yet? 】

[About Yanzi...] Bai You didn't answer the ghost's question, but mentioned the matter of Yanzi turning danger into salvation, but after saying four words, he didn't know how to continue or how to express it.

【You, do you want to thank me? 】The lonely ghost raised his eyebrows, but Baiyou sometimes faltered.

【…】

【Want to thank but don't know how to express? 】The lonely ghost looked up to the sky and sighed 【You'er is really awkward. 】

[...! ! ! 】

【How about this. 】The lonely ghost leaned over, gently brushed the hair from Baiyou's ears, and whispered softly 【Why don't you draw a picture for me, how about it? ] At the same time as the words fell, a soft and cold warm touch came from the left side of Baiyou's cheek.

When he reacted, the ghost had already gone away with a chuckle [It smells...very fragrant...]

[Ghosts are inherently inferior! 】Looking at the arrogant back, Baiyou raised his sleeve and wiped the kissed place on his left cheek.

At some point, there was something extra in his hand, it was the ghost's gold silk peach blossom fan.

In the evening, just as Baiyou came out of the study, he saw Zisu and Zisu hurrying over.

[Young master! ] Zisu and Zisu saluted in unison [The second prince has returned to the palace safely. 】

【kindness. ] Baiyou nodded.

In the morning Huangfu Qing managed to go out to the palace, stayed in the White Mansion and yelled that she didn't want to go back, but in the end she was forced to go back, because it was too late, Bai You asked Zisu and Zisu to escort her back to the palace.

[However, we were followed on the way. 】Zisu hesitated for a while, and reported truthfully.

[The one following is the ghost envoy. ] Zi Su added.

Ghost envoys are one level higher than ghosts, ghosts who can be invisible. Compared with ghosts, they have already taken human form, and their power is much stronger than ghosts.However, although they can be invisible, their smell is easy to be perceived because the smell is difficult to eradicate.

【However, the ghost was just following, nothing else, we didn't take action considering the safety of the second prince.When he came back, the ghost had already left. 】

Ghost?

Baiyou frowned.

The night I took the white tree out of the house to buy sweet-scented osmanthus cake, I also felt something unusual nearby.At that time, Bai Qiao was watching the kite with the ghost by the bridge, considering the crowds on the street, so he just followed his breath all the way, but when he reached Liuxiang Street, the ghost's breath suddenly disappeared completely.It was getting late at that time, so I gave up and went back to the Linfeng Pavilion to join Bai Chuan and the others.

Today, the ghost messenger reappeared.

[There is no trend of attack, it seems that there is another purpose. 】 Baiyou said.

[The target... is the second prince? 】 Zisu guessed.

Baiyou nodded.

[The second prince has been staying in the palace. He has killed only a handful of ghosts. He has never had any contact with ghosts. Why...]

A few years ago, Huangfu Qing sneaked out of the palace at night to have fun and was chased by ghosts. Fortunately, Bai You arrived in time and wiped out the besieging ghosts.Huangfu Qing, who never knew that there were ghosts in the world, was shocked by the scene of Baiyou killing ghosts, and suddenly became very interested, clamoring for Baiyou to teach him how to kill ghosts to defend himself.Later, Bai You took him to Liu Yeer's side to practice.

At that time, it was thought that it was just a coincidence that Huangfu Qing was hunted down by a ghost.

For so many years, humans and ghosts lived in peace and did not invade each other, but it was inevitable that occasionally some ghosts would come out to riot.

So at that time, I thought it was just that Huangfu Qing ran around in the middle of the night and happened to meet a few ghosts.

But, today...

Not chasing, but following...

I am afraid……

[I am also confused about this matter. 】Bai You said 【Tomorrow you two will go to Feng Yuyuan first. 】

【yes. 】Zisu and Zisu replied respectfully.

The moon is bright and the wind is clear, but there is a faint chill.

After entering the room, Zisu poured two cups of tea and handed one cup to Zisu.

[Xiao Su. 】Zi Su said.

【kindness? 】

[You discovered the ghost that day, didn't you? 】Zisu didn't reach out to pick up the tea, but stared at Zisu and asked.When he came out to get his body done in the cloth shop that day, Zisu had already left in a hurry.When he chased after him, he saw Zisu with a gentle smile on her face, walking as if nothing had happened, not mentioning what happened just now.

【kindness. 】Zisu responded, seeing that he didn't answer, she put the tea on the table next to Zisu.

Suddenly, Zi Su held the hand that was about to withdraw.

[In the future, don't hide it from me. 】Zisu looked at Zisu with serious eyes.He only heard him say in a deep voice [I will be worried. 】

Zisu was stunned.

Zi Su's hand, contrary to his cold expression, was warm and scalding.

Even the hand he held became warm.

After a long time, Zisu raised her head to look into those deep eyes, and said gently [OK. 】

Zisu is like a warm spring, moistening things silently, once it flows from the bottom of my heart, I want to keep it, so Zisu is afraid of losing it.
